The ReStore at 505 W. Broward Blvd. typically sells out of its shutter stocks quickly during a hurricane warning, Daly said.

"I think there is nothing more important than protecting your property,'' said Daly, a retired accountant who volunteers at the Habitat store in Fort Lauderdale.

Nancy Daly, Family Selection Chairman for Habitat for Humanity of Broward, was quoted to say: "Year after year, new FAMB volunteers join us in our efforts and many of the original folks still return to help and I am proud to know them as my friends.
